There are various utilities available that will let you store arbitrary 
data to the windows clipboard via a command line.  I know that the MKS 
Toolkit has such a command (obligatory product placement <grin>).  You 
could invoke such a utility using the PC remote command support in CA400 
(or whatever it's called today) with the data you want to stuff onto the 
clipboard and then pop a message up telling the user to paste into the web 
page.
